Expert Panel on Securities Regulation Recommends Investor Protection
The Minister of Finance and the members of the Expert Panel are to be
congratulated on this initiative. The Final Report recommends a national
regulator as did the Wise Persons Committee five years ago. However, it is the first time that
official recommendations have been made to give the regulator power to
order restitution for aggrieved investors and to establish an Investor
Protection Fund to pay
restitution.
